(OI) Merlonghi, Tursi, O Connor Oggi in Italia Workbook/Lab Manual (WB/LM) English/Italian Dictionary: any portable dictionary Course Description This course is designed for students with no previous knowledge, or very limited knowledge, of Italian language. It focuses on the learning and acquisition of the basic structures of Italian, with a fairly balanced emphasis on vocabulary and grammar, listening and reading strategies, and process writing. Strong emphasis will be placed on acquiring conversational and comprehension skills, using practical and situational materials, dialogues and role plays, which will stress both language and culture. The course will also introduce you to Italian culture through a series of readings and short Internet researches (Note Culturali). You will be encouraged to make use of newly learned grammatical skills to interact with native speakers in everyday urban life, and to experience the city of Rome. The course is entirely conducted in Italian. Instructor: Barbara Castaldo Office Hours: by appointment, before or after class Attendance and Participation Class attendance and participation are one of the most important elements in language learning. Students are expected to come to class prepared on the grammar, ready to answer questions and to participate actively in class activities. Students are also required to bring their dictionaries to each class, and to use them for class activities and for home assignments. More than three unexcused absences will affect your final grade. Homework (compiti) Homework/personal notes should always be written on a separate piece of paper and not on books. We will correct homework assignments at the beginning of every class. Failure to complete homework assignments accurately will lower your grade. NOTE CULTURALI is a weekly assignment meant primarily to reinforce your reading/writing skills in Italian. You are required to: 1) read the assigned readings in the Textbook and be ready to answer my questions about the readings; 2) do a short Internet research and find a new piece of information on one of the weekly cultural themes; 3) write a short report about it (2, 3 sentences), and read it in class. GLOSSARIO: you will create your own glossario during the semester, on a separate notebook or using flash cards. You will add words you are learning and at times you will read and explain some of these words in class. We may have words contests as well. 1
